Top Jongno-5.6 ga-dong Hotel Reviews

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room. The hallway was a little warm but we went in the summer so that is understandable, I do love being on the 3rd floor where the laundry room, gym and microwave are located. The area of the hotel is about a 10 minute walk to the heart of Myeongdong shopping so it was very convenient. And yet still very quiet. I would stay in this hotel again."

Lotte Hotel Seoul

8/10 Good

"The hotel is centrally located with the Lotte shopping mall just downstairs. This is the second time we have stayed at the hotel and it is just amazing for convenience. I would say that its very expensive and we didn't opt for breakfast this time. We had to pay extra to use the traditional Korean spa so we didn't use it this time either."

L7 GANGNAM by LOTTE HOTELS

10/10 Excellent

"The room itself (Superior room, queen bed) was incredibly nice. Spacious and clean. The view we had was incredible with floor to ceiling windows across one wall. Bathroom very nice and plenty of space all round. One of the nicer hotel rooms we've stayed in. Solid air conditioning. Good shower. Within a few minutes walk to the nearest metro station with good connections. Easy walk to the starfield mall also. We didn't go to the restaurant or have breakfast as there was so many coffee shops nearby that do warm breakfast food for a cheaper price, so can't comment on the quality of breakfast. Although only briefly chatted with staff on check-in etc, they were all very polite and helpful and spoke good English."

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

8/10 Good

"Great team providing personalised service and very professional and friendly. Having to book for swimming pool in advance and go at a specific time wasn’t ideal, however they have good facilities; would be great to be able to go to the swimming pool area whenever you find the time. The food and beverages were really good. Great atmosphere."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Me and my husband absolutely love staying at this hotel everytime we are in Seoul. Very convenient in terms of location to transportation: the airport limousine bus drops off a minute away, station access within a couple minutes, and bus stops just a few steps from the entrance of the hotel. There is also a port cochere for easy taxi or car drop offs and pick ups. There is a plethora of food options in every direction, including some nightlife one street behind the hotel. This hotel’s staff is always friendly and respectful, extremely clean, and has a nice view of Gyeongbokgung Palace and the surrounding city. The room size is enough for a couple. We got a room where the toilet room and shower room were separate so that was a plus. One of my favorite amenities that they provide are collagen eye masks which are perfect when you’ve traveled for hours and need a refresh. Highly recommend this hotel for short or long stays. We can’t wait for our next trip to the Hotel Gracery Seoul!"
